Fox Valley Technical College has added new technology to train nursing students in the care of pediatric patients.
The Health Simulation Technology Center has a virtual hospital that allows students to get hands-on experience in a controlled environment.
Two new pediatric "patients" are a baby and a small boy. They are wireless simulators with life-like features. Watch the video above the story to see how they work.
The college built the virtual hospital in 2013.
